January is the month in which most people die.

"On a day-by-day basis, August has the fewest deaths, while January has the most."

"This is consistent with what we know about the effects of winter and the flu season on those that are sick and frail," said Robert N. Anderson, chief of the NCHS's mortality statistics branch."

But how come this is an almost worldwide phenomenon? The reason with winter and flu season might apply for northern countries on the northern hemisphere. But why its same way on the southern hemisphere, where winter is July / August and in tropical areas where there is no winter at all?

Most people pass away in December (or Winter) because it is colder and more illnesses to go around, you can get frostbite depending on how cold it is.

Also some people pass away in the summer, July or august, from drowning, allergies, and if you live in a certain area, snakes?

This is just a guess because of climate and all that :)

I believe you are referring to when do most heart attacks occur? Most cardiac deaths occur on Monday, when people return to work, or the first day back at work after a long holiday or vacation. Most victims are males, but females are just as prone to heart attack from stress.
